News, thoughts, and ramblings from the minds behind Memphis Made Brewing Co.
After a long, hot summer and a warm fall, it's finally getting cold here in the Mid-South.
That means it's time for a cold weather favorite, just in time for the Holidays: The Judge.
In case you've forgotten, here's a description:
Here comes The Judge! Here comes The Judge! Order in the court 'cause The Judge is in the building! You've been summoned to enjoy a chocolate-vanilla porter made with roasted cocoa nibs and Madagascar vanilla. This very judicious offering balances roasty malt notes with hints of vanilla and cocoa. It has a solid body and holds a great head at 6 percent ABV. So put on your Sunday best because The Judge's court is in session and there will be no objections.
Look for this beer on draft and in cans at our Edge District taproom and around Shelby County where good beer is sold.
MALTED 2024 is coming!
Celebrate "11 Years of Beers" with your Memphis Made family at The Ravine this Saturday! 🍻
We can't wait to have our first birthday party in our new location and invite you to join us for SPECIAL LIMITED VERY UNIQUE dark malty beer releases, a day of live music, and delicious eats from Smoke 'n' Toast Food Truck!
Some of the special releases include: Nights Like These (Scandinavian Strong Dark Ale), Stouty McStoutFace (English Stout), Something Wheated This Way Comes (100% Wheat Ale), Ain't No Lie, Baby Rye Rye Rye (American Red Rye Ale) and Procratinator (Dopplebock).

Can you tell we're excited?
One of our favorite beers, Plaid Attack!!!, has returned in time for the cool fall weather to finally hit Memphis.
This seasonal Scottish ale clocks in at 6.2 percent ABV. Its solid malt backbone comes from Marris Otter, crystal, chocolate and a dash of smoked cherry wood malts. This is balanced with a variety of UK classic hops to create a smooth drinking Scottish ale.
We'll have Plaid Attack!!! on tap and in cans at the taproom this weekend.
For National American Beer Day on Oct. 27, we're going to take $1 off each pint sold and you can look for it in retailers around Shelby County next week.

Memphis Made has partnered up with UNAPOLOGETIC on a new beer: Midnight Marauder!
We made this cherry limeade wheat ale for UNAPOLOGETIC's Midnight Marauder event Sept. 21 in the Deep End Theatre at Mosh.
This electronic music event is a regular gathering that nurtures a community of innovative producers, instrumental artists, and fans alike, where creativity flourishes through performance and open-aux sessions, inviting participants to explore and express the rhythmic dimensions of time.
The next Midnight Marauder event is planned for November.
The Midnight Marauder beer will be available at the Mosh events. It will debut in our taproom Sept. 22 and a limited amount be released into the market.
This is Memphis Made's second collaboration with UNAPOLOGETIC. We first made 3:30 on a Wednesday, a raspberry honey wheat beer two years ago.
